tile/code

Shows preformatted source code content with an optional language label.

Name	Required	Lightning Type	Default	Description
code	Yes	`lightning__multilineTextType`		The source code text string, which includes any programming or markup language.
language	No	`lightning__textType`		A programming language identifier shown as a header label. For example: `javascript`, `python`, `sql`.

Display a block of preformatted source code in a monospace font, preserving whitespace, indentation, and line breaks exactly as written. Use tile/code to show a snippet, command, config file, or query.

For inline code within a sentence, use tile/text with variant: "code" instead. For rich-formatted content, use tile/markdown instead.

Embed newlines as \n and include any indentation directly in the code string. Whitespace is preserved exactly as you entered it.

When the snippet doesn’t match a supported language, omit language to hide the header.

Use the language attribute with these languages.

javascript
typescript
python
java
c
cpp
csharp
go
rust
ruby
php
sql
html
css
json
yaml
xml
bash
markdown

Consider these guidelines when working with code.

Set language to a lowercase identifier such as "python" or "sql", so the header label appears.
Code highlighting isn’t supported.
